1 It's summer.
I want to die.
Don't be so depressing, Tooru.
cover: Swimming at the Beach Since it's summer, why don't we go to the beach? I don't want other people to see my skinny body.
Gosh, don't worry so much! Everyone in the world is unique.
You should take advantage of that! Run-chan.
Plus, people with certain fetishes I didn't need the last part! I'm going to become one fuwa fuwa fuyuu shite ふわふわ 浮遊して with the gently floating kirameku tooku no sora to きらめく遠くの空と and glittering distant sky.

oshaberi ga hajimaru おしゃべりが始まる Ta-dah! That's why I bought a swimsuit for you, Tooru! I picked the smallest size, too.
Let's go to the beach with this! Here! I'm sure it'll look good.
Go on, try it on! O-Okay.
It looks great! But it's a little loose I'm coming in! I bought some ice cream! Er What's this? Tooru, she's got ice cream! I-I-I'm not hungry right now! Hey, what's wrong with Tooru? Well, this and that Ah, this is the new one they came out with this year! I always wanted to try it! That's why I decided to buy some.
What a coincidence.
Want to split it, then? On second thought, I'll have some! Wha Why are you naked? Beach Gym Gym Math Eng Eng Elec.
Chem.
board: "Pool" Pool time! She changed fast! Goodness.
Getting all worked up over the pool, even in high school.
It must be blissful being Yutaka.
What are you saying? When it comes to summer, it's gotta be the pool! Did you forget this is a class? It's still the pool! Toorun, your swimsuit is faded everywhere but here.
Is it a hand-me-down? This is because I've been wearing this since elementary school.
Ow! Gosh! That's dangerous! Floating feels so nice Yutaka, your breasts sure are big.
They sure are.
Hmph.
All that fat floats, so it must make swimming easier.
Backhanded compliment, huh? Jealous? O-Of course not- hm? No fat at all! So hot! Gym is really harsh in the summertime.
So the first years have swimming class.
Ah! It's Tooru! You're right! The pool sure looks refreshing.
All right, gather 'round! Must be nice.
I'm jealous.
What's this, Nagi? I thought you hated the pool.
I do hate the pool.
Or rather, I don't want to wear a swimsuit.
However! Toooruuu! Splash water on me! Buckets of water! Nagi's gone crazy from the heat! Stop it, Nagi! Let go! Let go, I say! Tooru! Water! Water! Well, whatever.
Huh? The beach? Yep! Summer vacation starts next week, so let's all go! I'm in! Huh? I don't have any swimsuits I can wear at the beach.
I don't want to wear one, period.
What are you two saying? I'm sure that's not true! W-What? I'm sorry, did you hear that? Just because she's got such a nice body Just because she's so fair-skinned.
Gosh, what are you saying? It's not about that! My, how modest.
Geez I'd rather go to the beach with everyone.
Thank you very much! All that walking's made me hot.
Sorry for making you come with me.
Nah, I bought some stuff too.
Shall we take a break somewhere? Nagi? What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? All the cold air's gathered here.
It's nice! I'll take a break here.
Wha-Nagi, stand up! Please! That girl back there was tall! She's probably around 170 centimeters.
People must think I'm huge.
Nah, I'm sure they're jealous.
You're slender, and both your height and chest are impressive.
The chest part was unnecessary.
These give me a lot of problems, you know.
Really? These bras are nice! Plus they're cheap.
Maybe I'll get one? You're right.
I want one too! Hm? What is it? These only go up to size D.
I guess being small can be convenient sometimes.
Let's go home already.
Hey, want to go take a look? What now? I thought we decided not to go to the beach.
Oh come on, they're so cute! Well I'm not buying anything.
Hey! Nagi! How's this? Looks fine.
Really? I'm gonna try them on, so can you take a look? Perfect.
Really? In that case How about this one? Just right.
In that case How about this? Like it was made for you.
Really? It's so hard to decide! I'll go try some different ones.
Just wait for a bit, 'kay? Sure.
Okay! Nagi! Thanks for waiting! Huh? I-It's not what it looks like! I-I'm just I was just taking a look I'll try some on.
Right! And I bought one.
It's fine! It looked great on you! Thanks.
Oh yeah! Texting someone? Yep.
Asking Run and Tooru if they want to go to the beach.
What? I can't wait! Just two more kilograms.
Not happening.
Run says okay! I'm home.
Welcome back! Run-chan was just here.
Did she already leave? Yeah.
She just had something to give you.
This is a swimsuit I used to wear.
I think it'll fit you perfectly! Let's race to that island, Tooru Play hard, learn hard, and I look forward to seeing you all full of energy at the start of the next semester.
board: "Summer Vacation!!" Wait up! Ocean! Ocean! Ocean! Ocean! Ocean! Ocean! Ocean! What are you, a kid? The ocean! Ocean! Huh? It's so pretty! We're in the middle of the road.
Streetcar mode, I guess.
You're right.
Wow! It goes on the road! I wonder when they attached them? Huh? Attached what? The tires, of course! There aren't any.
Yahoo! The beach! All right! Time to swim! Being at the beach always gets my spirits up! Me too! Run-chan.
Thanks for lending me your swimsuit.
No problem! I'm glad it fits.
Sorry the design's sort of childish.
It's fine.
After all, it's from when I was in elementary school! Hey! What are you doing? Let's hurry up and go! Coming! Elementary school Take that! You got me! Gosh, that tickles! And up you go! What gives? That looks like fun, Tooru! Wha- Whoaa Tooru? Nagi? Look at your head! What? Seaweed.
Huh? Ugh! It looks good on you, Nagi! Looks good! Seaweed Let me have a time-out.
Aw come on, Nagi, tired already? I woke up at five AM! I'm running out of steam here.
I'm still doing fine! Well, I'm a weakling.
Then let's take a breather.
I'll go buy some juice! Ah, then get me a melon soda, please.
Sure thing.
Sports drink for me.
Okay! She really must have been tired.
Melon Soda Fried Noodles Grape Juice Cola Float Melon Soda Fried Noodles Grape Juice Cola Float Welcome! House on the Sea Enojima Center There's a lot of choices.
Which should I get? Run-chan.
That one.

Nagi-chan! We're back.
Hey.
Huh? Yuuko's sleeping.
She really is.
Honestly, she was all, "I'm still doing fine!" a minute ago, but as soon as she sits down, this happens.
She looks comfortable.
I know! Hm? This feels wonderful! There are no crowds, plus it's quiet.
You can't beat a tropical island.
W-What's this? Leaves.
Gosh, what's the big idea, Tooru? It tickles! Y-You're heavy Y-You're all heavy! Huh? A-A dream? I must have fallen asleep.
A-A castle?! Get it off! Don't move.
We're almost done.
Get this off me already! Take that! Attack! Sorry.
Don't sweat it! What's up? It feels like it's tugging at you.
It's so much fun! Is it really that fun? Nagi? M-Me too! Lunch time! When you go to the beach, you gotta have ramen! Fried noodles.
Taco-rice, a real tropical dish! I brought a bento.
Same as usual, huh? Don't worry! Leave it to me! Huh? What are you going to do? Well, we're at the ocean after all! Fish! What?! What kind of landscape are we hoping for? Look, we can see the horizon now.
Our hearts leap on the hot sand.
Even when I blink, I can still see the sun.
It's as if I've been holding back the urge to play my heart out.
I'm bursting forth with a new self that no one has ever seen! There's a blue sky in my heart, waves are splashing high, and my feelings are overflowing.
Let's go, Sisters.
Our tan lines The people are thinning out.
Well, it's evening already.

Feels like we played a ton today.
Amidst the countless sparkles, It was worth waking up early.
Right? let's paint a rainbow.
The beach was lots of fun! Yeah! Well, I guess it was fun.
Let's come again together some time! Yeah.
Yuuko, hurry up! Hang on a second! Hurry, hurry! We made it.
It's empty.
Yuuko-chan, you're not going to sit? Ah, no, I'm fine right here.
We won't arrive home for a while.
Well, I still have energy left Is it all right, Yuuko? Yeah, it looks fine.
Cuticles! Are your cuticles all right, Yuuko-chan? How do you expect her to tell? I-I think they're all right.
Yuuko-chan, your hair is long and pretty, so you gotta take care of it! Her skin's white, too.
Th-Thanks Oh yeah, I wonder if I got tanned? I'm sure you don't have to worry.
You put on sunscreen and all.
I guess.
She's not tanned at all.
Run, what kind of sunscreen do you use? Don't use any.
How'd you keep your skin like this without sunscreen? I can't believe it.
That tickles! I'm the type that doesn't tan easily.
Really? What are you, an alien? What? No I'm not! Run-chan is an Earthling.
Are you sure? I'm sure! The hats hanging from the tall rack akane ni narabu あかねに並だline up in the sunset.

" furimukinagara baibai 振り向きながら バイバイ Next time I wonder why swimming makes you so sleepy? Especially during lunchtime after swimming class! This must be the fearful beginning.
